POV: Your Kids Wanted A Porch Goose Too... So I Made Them One- A Free Fall Craft for Kids

Sep 7
2 min read

Happy Labor Day, friends! Whether you're heading to a barbecue, relaxing at home, or just soaking up the last of the warmer days, I hope today brings you joy, laughter, and maybe a coffee, or two.


Speaking of relaxing at home, I’ve got a free printable craft that’s perfect for those fall days with your little ones—The Free Fall Goose & Accessories


Hand holds a cartoon goose cutout and tiny black mug with ghost face, against a sunny green, blurred garden background.

This simple and screen-free activity lets kids dream up their own porch goose and can be adapted for older kiddos too.


✂️ What You’ll Need: POV: Your Kids Wanted A Porch Goose Too... So I Made Them One- A Free Fall Craft

  • The free printables I created (grab them [here — link to PDF])

  • Scissors

  • Glue stick or double-sided tape

  • Crayons, markers, paint, or colored pencils (whatever you have at home and like to color with)


🎨 How to Make Your Porch Goose

  1. Print the free PDF page.

  2. For younger kids, have them color first, then help them cut out the goose and accesories.

  3. For older kids, have them draw and add some of their own accesories.

  4. Glue the accesories on.

  5. If you want to get fancy and have velcro and a laminator around the house you can laminate the goose and accesories and let your littles change them up. This is a fun add on but totally not needed if you don't already have the materials at home.


I printed my goose on regular old computer paper, but if you have any thicker paper you can run through your printer you can give that a go to.


🎃 This little fall project is simple, low-prep, and full of heart. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, babysitter, or teacher planning fall fun, it’s a great way to stay intentional while keeping the magic of childhood alive.


Wishing you a safe, joy-filled September full of sweet moments🪿🪿🪿
